Since skateboarding is as popular now as ever and with a whole new generation of kids taking part, places in which to legally skateboard are becoming more important.

In the past, cities have been hesitant to establish public facilities for skateboarders because of liability issues. New laws have made it easier for cities to limit their liabilities at these publicly owned parks and this has resulted in an ever increasing number of facilities to skate.

Now, Santa Barbara skateboarders have a fun, safe place to skate.
